The Waterloo Regional Labour Council is committed to providing an environment that is free from harassment and discrimination while fostering the goodwill and trust necessary to protect the rights of all individuals. We are committed to promoting mutual respect, understanding and co-operation as the basis of interaction among our delegates, affiliates, and guests. This labour council will neither tolerate nor condoning behaviour that undermines the dignity or self-esteem of individuals or the integrity of relationships.

Harassment and discrimination on the basis of a prohibited ground are violations of the Ontario Human Rights Code and are illegal.

The work of the Labour Council is carried out by volunteers who are active on our many committees. We are only as strong as our members! To make us stronger, and to help us make our community a better place for everyone, please consider joining in the work of one of these committees. Minimum expected commitment is to participate in four committee meetings per year. Each committee will determine its own workload. Contact the Committee Chair to discuss how you can get involved.

The Waterloo Regional Labour Council is essentially a coalition of unions who represent workers in Waterloo Region. Union Locals pay dues to the Labour Council and can then name delegates to vote on Council matters at monthly membership meetings.
